My First Necklace!

Here it is! I had an idea, conjured up a pattern, and *Ta-Da* my first piece of tatted jewelry. It's just a simple line of split rings with beads and a pretty charm. I'm going to wear it to school tomorrow so we'll see if it stands the test of the 'outside world!' It turned out to be just the right length too!

My weekend outside of my tatting adventures consisted of 50 quarts of home-made apple cider! We harvested 7 bushels from our two trees, chopped the apples, poured 'em all into the press and out it come! Well, lot's of test to study for this week so sorry that this is so short!Talk to you all later,Allison

Hi Allison, I would have loved to taste some of that apple cider of yours. I did buy some in a store that comes from a farmer. I have yet to open it. Wow, you sure do make a lot of different doilies and in a lot of colors to. I have just finished making a couple of Celtic doilies/motifs using my new Lizbeth thread. Nice to work with.
